How does the coffee note come across in this fragrance?+−
The Arabica coffee note is smooth and roasted rather than sharp. When combined with the butterscotch and vanilla in the base, it creates an aroma similar to a sweetened cappuccino or a rich dessert rather than a plain black coffee.
Is this fragrance suitable for the office or strictly for nighttime?+−
While it has the strength for a night out, many users find it performs well in professional settings during colder months. The dry down is soft and creamy enough for daily wear, though the initial opening is quite bold.
How does this compare to other Lattafa gourmands?+−
Compared to the brand’s rose or oud-heavy scents, Ajayeb Dubai is much more focused on the "edible" accords. While scents like Ajwad are more floral-musky, this is strictly for those who enjoy creamy, spicy, and lactonic profiles.
Is this a masculine or feminine scent?+−
It is marketed for both men and women. The pineapple and butterscotch provide a sweetness often associated with feminine perfumery, while the saffron, coffee, and sandalwood provide a smoky, woody depth that appeals to masculine preferences.
